If you correctly applied the ldap.tar.gz tarball provided on

http://wiki.skolelinux.de/PhilippHuebner/customTerminalserverLenny.

all users are added to a few groups at login time using the pam_group
module. See 'man group.conf'.
My /etc/security/group.conf says:
*; *; *; Al0000-2400; audio,cdrom,floppy,fuse,plugdev,video,scanner

If 'id' shows your user in the group and it still doesn't work, the
error must be somewhere else.
